Spurs start slow, finish big

The rivalry between the Dallas Mavericks and the San Antonio Spurs has been a long war with the Spurs dating back to the 1976-77 season.  To date, the Spurs have dominated the Mavericks 99 wins to 65.  Last night another battle was waged and the Spurs upped their record to 100 wins with a 112-83 whipping at the AT&T Center.

The Spurs will now hit the road for a three game road swing that includes the Suns and a surefire playoff intense game with the Golden State Warriors (whom the Spurs just overtook in the Power Rankings) before heading home for another in-state game this time against the Rockets on January 27th.

Spurs fans on the road, get your tickets to see the NBA’s top team when they come to your town or see them at the AT&T Center…either way, the Spurs are the team to watch in the NBA now!

Spurs on quick two-game road trip before facing Cavs at home

The San Antonio Spurs will get to take their show on the road as they revisit the Brooklyn Nets tonight at the Barclays Center New York.   The Spurs are riding a Seven game winning streak and have not lost since their Christmas debacle in Houston on Christmas Day.

The Nets have not won since they beat the Celtics on January 2nd.  They just fired Head Coach Lionel Hollins, who was replaced with Assistant Tony Brown on an interim basis.  The franchise also reassigned GM Billy King.  As of today, John Calipari’s name has been bantered about as a replacement.

The Spurs will face the Detroit Pistons tomorrow night before returning home for a game against LeBron James and the Cleveland Cavaliers.  Get your tickets today to that big game as it will sell out.  Plenty of great seats and affordable tickets available today!

Spurs remain undefeated @ home after routing Jazz

The San Antonio Spurs, the NBA’s most productive team, let their bench help clean up with 70 points in a 123-98 whipping of former rival Utah Jazz.  Tim Duncan led all starters with 18 points on 8-13 shooting while Kawhi Leonard chipped in 15 and David west 14.

“We’re going through the process of trying to get better every game,” said Spurs forward David West, who had season highs in points (18) and rebounds (13). “Continue to protect our home court and continue to focus on our defense. Regardless of who plays, we’re trying to make sure that we attempt to make it perfect. Even though perfection is not a possibility, we’re still looking to achieve it.”

“We’re eventually going to have a letdown,” veteran reserve Manu Ginobili said. “We’re pros, we shouldn’t. We have to fight hard to take every minute, every possession seriously. Considering that the goal is not to win today, but to get better for when it counts in four months. We still have margin for improvement.”

The Spurs will try to keep their home streak intact when the visiting New York Knicks take the court tomorrow night at the AT&T Center.
